A trimmed beam provides hull speed equal to boats a foot longer. The Northstar tracks, glides and turns with minimal effort.

We have all been taught to believe perfection is unobtainable. And yes, this is true when it comes to pancake griddles. But this is not the case with tandem canoes. How else would one describe the Northstar? We've trimmed the beam to provide the hull speed of boats a foot longer. It tracks, glides and turns with minimal effort. Loads of room for gear. And we haven't tried, but there is a rumor it even improves pancakes.
